What Took You So Long?

You fret over making a decision. You don't want to let anyone down. You weigh the pros and cons, you think about the worst-case scenario, then you consider the reaction you'd get from others... All of this gnashing of teeth will generally result in nothingness--nothing happens.

So, you wait and wait and wait. Then the situation becomes bad enough that you have to do something...so, you do it. You brace yourself for whatever will happen, for how you'll be viewed by others, etc. Then you get your first response:

What took you so long? We've been wondering when you'd do something about this.

Most of the time our toughest decisions are made much tougher by us avoiding them.
